Book Preliminary Research Findings on the Effect of Coarse Aggregate on the Performance of Portland Cement Concrete Paving

Download or read book Preliminary Research Findings on the Effect of Coarse Aggregate on the Performance of Portland Cement Concrete Paving written by B. Frank McCullough and published by . This book was released on 1993 with total page 118 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report focuses on aggregates used in the construction of continuously reinforced concrete pavements (CRCP). Specific chapters address (1) past research regarding aggregates used in CRCP, (2) field and laboratory investigations of CRCP, and (3) CRCP behavior and distress. The report reviews such topics as spalling and punchout distresses in continuously reinforced and jointed pavements, aggregate shape characterization using fractals, and the determination of sawcut depth using fractal analysis. Some of these activities relate directly to improving pavement performance, regardless of aggregate type used for construction.

Book Evaluation of Continuously Reinforced Hydraulic Cement Concrete Pavement at Virginia s Smart Road

This book was released on 2004 with total page 24 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A two-lane continuously reinforced concrete pavement was built in Blacksburg, Virginia, as a part of Virginia's Smart Road. One of the lanes is 12 ft wide, and the other is 14 ft wide. The additional 2 ft was part of the shoulder. Below the concrete pavement is a 3-in-thick open-graded drainage layer (OGDL); one section is asphalt stabilized, and the other section is cement stabilized. The concrete pavement was cured by a curing compound except that the 12-ft lane was also covered with plastic and straw because of concerns with cold ambient temperature. The objective of this project was to determine the material properties of the concrete, instrument the pavement, monitor construction practices, and monitor the performance of the pavement over 4 years. The concrete had high early strength, low permeability, and high shrinkage. The average crack spacing was more than 3 ft, indicating satisfactory performance. In general, cracks were wider when they were further apart, but the differences in crack spacing and width were variable and small in some cases and could not be correlated after 4 years. The end sections had less cracking than the interior sections of the pavement. There were fewer cracks and more space between cracks in the 12-ft lane and fewer cracks in the pavement over the asphalt-stabilized OGDL. This was attributed to a better cure in the 12-ft lane and to a lower friction over the asphalt-stabilized base. No changes to the specifications were recommended as a result of the study findings.

Book Field Evaluation of Coarse Aggregate Types

Download or read book Field Evaluation of Coarse Aggregate Types written by Kenneth Hankins and published by . This book was released on 1990 with total page 18 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report presents the background for studies concerning the effects of the concrete mix on the performance of continuously reinforced concrete (CRC) pavement. The initial work in this study resulted in a suggeested design standard for CRC pavement wherein the longitudinal steel percentage was varied depending on the coarse aggregate type. The information for the standard was developed using theoretical models. Therefore, it was desirable to verify the design standard using empirical data from specially-prepared test sections. This report describes in detail the variables involved and the design of the experimental test sections. The report also suggests a monitoring plan and a technique for determining an empirical verification of the design standard.

Download or read book Proceedings of the Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavement Workshop written by and published by . This book was released on 1980 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This report contains all of the papers presented at a workshop on Continuously Reinforced Concrete Pavements (CRCP) which was held in New Orleans, Louisiana. The information presented at the workshop covered all aspects of CRCP including design, construction, and maintenance procedures. The primary emphasis was concentrated on maintenance procedures. The proceedings include papers on polymer patching, under sealing, and flexible and rigid overlays.
